Graphite
Code review for high-velocity teams.
Overview
Graphite is a developer tool that integrates with GitHub to streamline the code review process, particularly for teams that work with small, incremental changes. Its core feature is the ability to create and manage 'stacks' of pull requests, where each PR is a small, dependent change. This allows for parallel review of related changes, reduces the size of individual reviews, and helps teams ship faster without sacrificing quality.
✨ Key Features
- Stacked pull requests
- Command-line interface (CLI) for managing stacks
- Enhanced PR inbox and dashboard
- Real-time notifications and status updates
- Seamless integration with GitHub's PR workflow
🎯 Key Differentiators
- Focus on the 'stacked changes' workflow
- Powerful CLI for managing dependent branches
- Designed to augment, not replace, the GitHub workflow
- Reduces PR review size and complexity
Unique Value: Unblocks developers and accelerates shipping by making it easy to write and review small, incremental pull requests in parallel.
